None!
So, here's how to make some. Sorry for no pics, I left my camera at my grandma's house. Eep. Next week will have pics, I promise!
BOW
1. Get a nice stick.
- Pine is really good, because it's strong and light, but any stick will do.
- Don't tear them from the tree, but grab a dry one. It will last longer.
- Make sure the stick is slightly curved and that it doesn't break when you fold it a little.
2. Get the bowstring.
- Anything will do...
- elastic thread
- thin twine
- string
- yarn
3. Wrap the end of the string around the end of the stick.
4. Stretch the string and tie the other end to the other end of the stick.
- Make sure it's nice and tight!
5. Cut off the excess.
Done!
Arrows- Toothpicks or small sticks are fine. 'Notch' them in the string, pull the string back a bit, and shoot!
It's supposed to actually work, for about 5-10 feet.
I hope that you liked it!
Next up: Target practice. Make a target, and learn how to shoot!
Have an awesome summer,
We loved your post! We will all try making it and post pictures on our day to post! :)

Cute!
ReplyDeleteThanls! It works on people-sized bows too, just use skewer sticks instead of toothpicks. :)
ReplyDeleteWe made a bow and arrow(s) for archery a little different and it was so hard! But we tried it this way and:
ReplyDeleteA) Super fun and easy!
B)Turned out a bazillion times better!
Thanks so much!
